The story goes that a former pub landlord’s wife, known as “Chattering Charteris” nagged so much that she even started ranting in her sleep. At last her husband could stand it no more and cut off her head. The approving villagers even had a “whip round” to pay for the headstone.

The locals described their local blitz:

They bombed our church them Germans did
In nineteen forty one
And left it there without a lid
Exposed to wind and sun

And when at last the war was o’er
And Hitler was the loser
We knelt, praying as of yore
Thanked God they missed the boozer

However the advice is:
Swerve the resident beers in favour of guest ales from the local Wincle Beer Company.

and as for food:
The pub offers good pork pies, a family room with pool, skittles and darts; picnic-sets out in front along with budgies, hens, ducks and donkeys

We'll go for the guest ale and a pork pie leaving room for Betty's hotpot tonight!

You should be able to make it for hot pot at the cock if you have been following closely and the virtual accommodation is sorted by Mick here...as featured on Channel 4's four in a bed and at the moment theres only 3 of us

I guess it's time to get back in the saddle for the last leg through Buxton to Whaley Bridge. On the way we will pass by a property owned by Norbert Dentressangle which gives me the opportunity to pose Question Number 5: Where is the property and name three of its uses in the last 80 years!

Buxton's quite close but its a decent town for a little dilly dally, and after that pork pie chesse and two pints, a little ride and a cup of tea and a bit of cake in Buxton, before the whaley bridge effort might be nice!

This will do for me, if you are too full up or want to lash on to Whaley Bridge I'll see you at the B&B I need to get some free water too at St Ann's Well!
